  • Thymol Decreases Apoptosis and Carotid Inflammation Induced by Hypercholesterolemia Through a Discount in Oxidative Stress
    http://www.cjmb.org Open Access Original Article Crescent Journal of Medical and Biological Sciences Vol. 4, No. 4, October 2017, 186–193 eISSN 2148-9696 Thymol decreases apoptosis and carotid inflammation induced by hypercholesterolemia through a discount in oxidative stress Roshanak Bayatmakoo1, Nadereh Rashtchizadeh2*, Parichehreh Yaghmaei1, Mehdi Farhoudi3, Pouran Karimi3 Abstract Objective: Atherosclerosis sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that can lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disorders that are generally along with hypercholesterolemia and oxidative stress. Various surveys have shown that thymol is a polyphenolic compound with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. This study aimed to investigate the anti- inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects of thymol on carotid tissue of hypercholesterolemic rats. Materials and Methods: Forty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups with 10 members each (n = 10): a control group with a normal diet (ND), a group with a high-cholesterol (2%) diet (HD), a group with a high-cholesterol diet combined with thymol (24 mg/kg HD + T), and a group with a thymol diet (T). After preparing serum from peripheral blood of rats, lipid measurements were obtained, including total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglycerides (TG), by using a colorimetric method; the levels of oxidized LDL (OxLDL) were obtained through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) antioxidant enzymes, as well as the concentrations of malondialdehyde (MDA) and serum total antioxidant capacity (TAC), were determined with the use of colorimetric methods. The protein expressions of Bcl2 and cleaved caspase 3 and the phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) in rat carotid tissue were determined by an immunoblotting method.

Abstract: Due to lifespan extension and changes in global climate, the increase in mycoses caused by primary and opportunistic fungal pathogens is now a global concern. Despite increasing attention, limited options are available for the treatment of systematic and invasive mycoses, owing to the evo- lutionary similarity between humans and fungi. Although plants produce a diversity of chemicals to protect themselves from pathogens, the molecular targets and modes of action of these plant-derived chemicals have not been well characterized. Using a reverse genetics approach, the present study re- vealed that thymol, a monoterpene alcohol from Thymus vulgaris L., (Lamiaceae), exhibits antifungal Cryptococcus neoformans activity against by regulating multiple signaling pathways including cal- cineurin, unfolded protein response, and HOG (high-osmolarity glycerol) MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) pathways.

Monk, Physical chemistry, Wiley 2004, Chapters, 5, 6, 177 – 229 and 233- 276, Theoretical background The Swedish chemist Arrhenius suggested that solutions that conduct electricity, so called electrolytes, do so because they dissociate into charged species called ions. Compounds of this type: acids, bases and salts may be classified as strong electrolytes dissociate in solution almost completely into ions, weak electrolytes dissociate only to a small extent in solution (only 10% or less ions are present in solution). Acids are compounds that ionize to release hydrogen ions, H+, to their surroundings. Bases are compounds that accept hydrogen ions, The equation for the ionization of a weak acid may be expressed as: HA ↔ H+ + A- (1) However, this suggests that protons exist free in solution. The reality is that protons are solvated in solution, that is they go around attached to a solvent (water) molecules.
